SirTorben,

It's obvious you have a good grasp of the architect program.
Very well done!

I assume we'll see The Forrest-Sky loop to complete your Trilogy.
Thanks for the new courses.

Boris, Jack and I played the Forrest-Sand loop, and Jack and I played the Sky-Sand loop this afternoon.

Nice planting, not overdone, very good technical work on the water, traps and greens. The greens had good smooth role and enough elevation and movement to keep them interesting. So this is a newby designer? Very nice start, Sir Torben; I look forward to more from you.

Thanks for this one - or is it two? or one and a half? I like the layout and the sounds are not overdone. The planting is simple but realistic. The course splash is in jpg format - needs to be a bmp to show in the game. The tee boxes are a little bland and some of the bunkers need smoothing IMHO. Overall, I think this is a design that shows a lot of work and thoughtfulness on the part of the designer. Scoring is pretty straigtforward here - I shot -5 with n/a/c settings (edit:this was for the Forest-Sand loop - I have not played the Sky-Sand loop yet, just walked the course.) I am keeping these two courses on my hard drive. Thanks so much for your contributions and keep'm coming

SirTorben,

I found this file in the upload folder this morning: Lubker Golf Resort - Forrest-Sky loop.zip dated 1/11/11

Is this a reissue of your earlier submission?

I am not sure what to do with the file. I will hold until you clarify.

Dar

Dar I think that is the completion of the Trilogy.

The Forrest-Sky loop is the third loop in the trilogi.
I just forgot the first time.
And this course is actual a real course. Located in Denmark. Designed by Trent Jones Jr.

Another few suggestions/comments to you new designers.

Your splash screen must be .bmp.
Course music must be .wav.
Text file may be rich text (.rtf) or .html.

Rather than sending these files separately you can add them to the course file by using the compress tool in the course manager. Inside the manager click on your course then compress, then add the above file(s) then "okay." Don't click on the libraries unless it's a new one you've made yourself.

Now when I (or another player) open your course, all these things are available to us.

The third course has been added and they've all been added to the real courses page.

Just played the Sky Loop.
Very impressed, was going to highly praised the actual hole designs until I read it was a real Trent Jones design.
Still, the exection and use of the architect to recreate the layout is to a high standard.
Greens tend to be a little flat though, that's my only negative thought, the good players shoot shoot the lights out here.
